Antimony Capital News Nouvelles de la Capitale d'Antimoine

LIU Guangli • 2019

Antimony Capital News was originally a documentary news broadcast by the local television station in Lengshuijiang. In this film, some of the original footage from early days of the program is intertwined with the footage depicting the film set of the documentary The Local Records of China - The Chapter of Lengshuijiang, attempting to creat a "timeless" narrative. Under a certain specific kind of ideology, the reality and continuity of the genre of "news" no longer exist, leaving behind images that say nothing other than the process of its own birth. Thus, the present moment is always absent.
